Lying in bed, you replay the night's events, from reckless drinking to almost getting fucked in the VIP room.


Earlier, you returned home weary from the day; it feels like wherever you go, there's always someone with inappropriate intentions, overstepping boundaries.


One thing you knew: you weren't there to drown your sorrows over an argument. You were there to gather yourself, to prepare for what needed to be done, even if you didn't want to do it.


After hours of contemplation, you arrived at a decision. Throwing the blanket aside, you sit up, glancing at the wall-mounted watch.


1:45 AM


You extend your hand to switch on the bedside lamp, casting a muted glow across the room as a weighted sigh escapes.


You wanted to stop hurting him any further, it's not like he deserves someone like you. You know it. Yet, you love him, and you really want to keep this relationship going despite the frequent fights because of you.


And because you love him; sacrifices need to happen.


It's more than clear now that your relationship with Jungkook is unhealthy, and now that you think about it, you don't know him that well. Conversations are often one-sided, with him inquiring about your day and work. He seldom shares anything about himself.


That one time he revealed a side you never knew existed made you realize he keeps pretty much everything—past, family, job, etc.—to himself. Once when you tried asking him about his job, he only mentioned working in an office for a company, and when you tried to get him to name the company or asked any further questions about his job, he'd change the topic so smoothly that it took you until now to realize that he was changing the subject to avoid answering you.


It's like he's keeping you in the dark, not because he doesn't want to share but because he believes you shouldn't know. This leaves you questioning if he presents himself differently with others when you're not around.


Is he truly a sweet, bunny-like guy who brings flowers to his girlfriend, or is that persona reserved only for you?


The sound of that makes it look like the relationship you were having with him was just some delusional, made-up fairytale that has a darker story behind it.


Despite the boundaries he's set with you, you respect them, knowing it's for your own good or perhaps he just doesn't want to open up about things like family for some traumatic reasons, like yours. You haven't told him about your parents' incident. In fact, no one knows except for Jimin.
